About

Scale AI is laying off 200 employees, approximately 14% of its staff, and cutting ties with 500 global contractors. The layoffs are largely in its core data-labeling business, as the company pivots to focus on enterprise and government sales units, following Meta's investment and the departure of its CEO.
